Great reminder! I have to admit, back in the Phantom days when I had to install the props before each flight, I did much more thorough prop checks. With the Mavic type aircraft I do pay less attention to the props. My bad...

I'm no expert but I just don't see the blurriness. I also have the Classic and am very happy with the Hasselblad camera (and lens). I'm not saying by any means that you don't have an actual issue with your particular camera, but I don't see it. Can you see any issue with mine?

To answer the OP's question of is anyone going to do it, (assuming he means flying the mini4 pro in FPV with goggles of any type) my answer is yes I already do (with the Goggles 2 and MC2) and its awesome. I don't own an Avata but when my Mavic 3 was updated to work with FPV I jumped to get my...

Typically, screen mirroring an android device copies the screen exactly so if this is your method then no, you can't just view the camera feed without the telemetry.

As mentioned above, the plus battery gives extra flight time (approx 10 minutes in my experience) AND increased wind stability due to the extra weight. Just keep in mind that using it takes to you to same flight category as it's big brothers, with all the same requirements that are required in...

Lol great thread! I'm afflicted as well. I've owned a total of 6 DJI drones as well as a couple no name babies. A P2V+ (still have it) 2 P3P's (ver 1 and 2, both sold) and my current fleet in my signature. Considering my wife has about $20K in her craft room I pretty much get free reign with my...

is it possible the weight difference is the issue? the Mavic 3 Pro is over 900 grams and the Classic is not. i believe thats an issue in the UK.

I envy you lol. i remember those days of terror and shaky hands when i first got my Phantom 3. My first high altitude flight, my first flight over water. Terrifying moments! With practice your confidence in your abilities and in the aircraft itself only gets stronger. Fly safe! :)

The difference in the transmission distance between the 3 different RC's is negligible to be honest. The other differences are more of a deal maker/breaker in my opinion. The N1 is missing the extra buttons and zoom dial that the RC and RC-PRO have. The RC can't run 3rd party apps but the...

Like I said, just my opinion. Clearly an unwelcome one so I'll leave it alone.

I appreciate your objectivity but I still don't buy it. Reported lodged in a tree 40 meters up? And let's be real, the Mavic 3 has full OA, unless it's dark, in which case finding it's location that high up is highly unlikely. I am not typically a skeptic, but I have seen enough fishing for...

Interesting that the OP hasn't been back. I don't know where he lives but there are zero trees that tall here. My RTH has always been set to 30m and I have never got close to a tree top. I'm not buying it. Pics or it didn't happen.

The red squares show the placement of the GPS antenna (not to be covered).

I would definitely upgrade to the Air 3 rather than another Air2S, the Air 3 is a far superior aircraft. I have 2 mini's, a mini 3 (not the pro) and a 4 pro and to be honest, both handle wind quite well, in fact I haven't been in a windy enough situation where I could only fly my Mavic 3...

Keep us updated. 6 years with no attention and surviving has to be a record! Question, since I have never owned that model I have no idea on the battery construction, specifically, if they swell, can you tell?
